Hello All,
These 2 dash trims are very difficult to fit. I bought the pair from a good supplier they DONT fit correctly .I had to buy the board and trim separately ,then fit the board with appropriate clearances ,and adhere the vinyl to the board .They now fit great after about 6 hours of work, Next time I remove them I will make some paper patterns if anyone needs them the trims are not paired so you will need 2 patterns. I would like to see how they fitted from new in production .Anyone had these problems ?

Hi

I have just ordered the dash panels from the UK for my K so I will let you know what the fit is like.

They have however quoted 6-8 weeks delivery

I bought a pair of untrimmed cards from Minisport SA for my Mk1 and covered them with my matching vinyl. They fitted very well and were easy compared to ones I've made myself in the past.
Be aware that Mk1 have the trim going behind the oval binnacle which only pushes up against the trim; Mk2 have the trim meeting the binnacle and just touching it, requiring a different profile around the binnacle.

Hi Allan

Today I fitted new dash cards and lower parcel shelf liner to my K

Great fit. The left dash card was perfect and the right just needed a fair push due to the Dempster lump

Still looks great
